An Mo Tui Na Massage is an ancient Taoist massage tradition that has been practiced for thousands of years to promote health and balance. As part of the broader Taoist approach to wellness, these techniques and practices combine therapeutic touch with the principles of energy flow to bring harmony to the body and mind.
An Mo Tui Na translates to “pressing and rubbing, pushing and pulling,” which reflect its emphasis on dynamic techniques. This form of massage works with the body’s meridians which connect to vital organs and systems, and by applying pressure to specific points using kneading, stretching, and rolling techniques, An Mo Tui Na stimulates the flow of Qi, helping to alleviate physical tension and clear energetic blockages to allow the restoration of the body’s natural healing processes.
At its core, Taoist massage aims to treat not just the physical body but also the deeper layers of energy and emotion through the application of broader Taoist philosophy, it recognises the interplay of yin and yang within the body and seeks to balance these forces for optimal health and well-being. The application of this art leaves both the recipient and practitioner feeling invigorated and relaxed.
Lee Family massage builds the principles of An Mo Tui Na upon Taoist philosophy, and as such, massage is viewed as an integral part of health and energy cultivation. Practitioners are trained not only in the physical techniques of massage, but also in the art of sensing and guiding Qi.
